ABSTRACT: The crowded area in the bus stop are happen at the peak time where a lot of passengers wait for the bus. That kind of situations is one of the reasons for some people to decide not to use public transportation. This reseach is aimed to optimize the schedule time model of the urban transportation problems in high-density city, in order to reduce crowding in the area of bus stop. The condition that makes the bus stop becoming crowded is considered. An effective schedule is proposed in order to minimize the crowded area of the bus stop. The proposed schedule are evaluated and compared with the existing schedule which can predict the optimal schedule of the problem. The bus route and bus stop locations are constructed based on TransJakarta, operator of bus rapid transit system in Jakarta city, Indonesia.
Keywords: Bus Rapid Transit, schedule, crowded area, TransJakarta.
